At Canonici di San Marco, guests are welcomed with open arms by owners Frederico and Emanuela. This glamping destination features two luxury tented lodges on raised wooden platforms. Each lodge features a bed appointed with quality linens, electricity, Wi-Fi, and private bathrooms with showers and toilets. The lodges are each decorated in a chic and sophisticated style which pays tribute to nature through the use of natural materials such as iron, wood and stone, and to history with the use of antique and repurposed furnishings. Much of the furniture in the glamping lodges are collected by Frederico and Emanuela during their travels and represent different corners of the world. Each lodge features numerous plants and flowers inside and out to inspire a feeling of symbiosis with nature. Even bath time feels special with original aluminum bathtubs from England that have been transformed into showers, handmade soaps from Provence, and a ceramic hand basin built from the gate to an old Sicilian brothel. The huge bathroom features a panoramic view of the nearby wheat fields. The lodges also feature a wide terrace with sunshades and chaise longues where guests can relax and take in the tranquil oasis that Frederico and Emanuela have created.
Canonici di San Marco could almost be considered a sophisticated, glamping bed and breakfast. The canvas lodges are located in Frederico and Emanuela’s expansive backyard. Each morning breakfast is thoughtfully prepared and includes homemade pastries which can be enjoyed on the veranda of the main house or on the private terrace to your lodge. Glamping guests are consistently amazed with the level of service and attention to detail at Canonici di San Marco. From the moment guests arrive, when greeted with a chilled bottle of DOC Prosecco, it is apparent that Frederico and Emanuela have thought of everything.
For guests looking to experience the beauty of Venice without having to stay within the hustle and bustle of city limits, Canonici di San Marco provides the perfect compromise. Guests at this glamping destination can reach Venice via short walk or bike ride (mountain bikes are provided) to a train station, and then a 20 minute ride into Venice which drops you off right at the top of the Grand Canal. The city of Padua is also a short train ride away.
